Merchant's description

Here is a beautiful Italian sweet wine from the Veneto. Produced from dried Covina, Rondinella, Croatina and Oseleta grapes, this is a truly opulent passito style. Only produced in exquisite vintages, the 2004 is a heady mix of mocha, bitter chocolate and juicy raisins, coming together on a luxuriously syrupy palate. Not to be missed.
